The Hide My Email failure is real but nowhere near as significant to users as it’s being portrayed, Apple is hiking so many prices yet looking at ways to make that palatable, plus Foxconn has begun its annual recruitment drive as it begins producing millions of new iPhones, all on the AppleInsider Podcast.

It’s been painted as a big security failing by Apple, and it definitely isn’t good. But even if someone does manage to circumvent your use of Hide My Email, the worst they can do is send you a spam message.
There’s more to it, of course, and if there weren’t then you wouldn’t benefit from listening to Wesley Hilliard explaining it on the podcast. But while it’s good to know the background, not to mention interesting, you can be reassured too.
